Mom's Aloo Paratha (No Bursting!)

My mom's recipe. The trick is to cool the potato mixture completely before stuffing, otherwise the dough tears and it's a mess.

Instructions

Make a soft dough with flour and water. Rest it.

Mash potatoes well (no lumps allowed!). Mix with spices, chillies, and herbs.

Take a lemon-sized ball of dough, flatten it, and put a generous amount of filling.

Seal the edges like a dumpling and flatten again.

Dust with flour and roll out gently.

Cook on a hot tawa with generous ghee or butter until crispy and brown.
